Computer Recruiter


A Computer Recruiter specializes in an area specific to a computer application or architecture.  When a company requires a computer consultant it is important to drill down and be more specific about what they are looking for.  Are they looking for IT, software development, software test or engineering?  A computer consultant can mean just about anything.

Computer consulting requirements vary, but in all cases when a customer is seeking a computer staffing agency they are looking for something very specific.   

Is it hardware or software design?  Identify what the candidate does on a daily basis.  Find out how much experience they must have for each attribute.  What degrees, certifications do they prefer?  What will the final product be?  What industries will it be marketed to, and how will the end user utilize the product?  
Ask what the "must have skills" and the "dream list skills" are.

Areas of expertise within computer staffing companies vary so when selecting a computer recruiter  it is important you detail what you need and ask lots of questions to ensure they can provide that person to you.
